    Xbox backwards compatibility code issues


    I have Fallout 3, Just Cause 2 and GoW 3 codes but I can't redeem. It just says " something went wrong" with the error:

    Xbos-0x80150017

    I have spoken to your team countless times on chat and I get fobbed off with " oh there's an update which will fix this " or " try again in a few days". This is unacceptable.

    I was asked to do this in hope that there is a cause and it will be sorted because I am rather frustrated. They are active as I have been told by your staff members and because they can't figure it out I have been sent to you. I am doubtful this will get
    sorted and it is a big blow to know I can't use this supposedly awesome feature.

    I was also told to give out these codes but I am not prepared to wirte them on here in case someone takes them and they manage to activate it on their accounts.

    Please get back to me and prove to me you're not as much of a lost cause that your chat support are.

    Thanks.

    :)

    Xbox backwards compatibility code issues

    Well there isn't going to be an update to fix that

    That issue is something you have to fiz yourself it is your physical location that us the issue

    Your account location and actual location must match that is an region error due to mismatches region

    I'm not sure why support didn't mentioned that to you

    If you do not live in an xbox live region you cannot get it

    Us foreign bases must use local region not us as the ip would not be the us

    Xbox 360 gears of wars games are region locked and can only be downloaded with matching regions due to the restrictions governments have on them (some governments actually based the games)

    It was suggested and I have made sure it is all set to the UK. All codes are from that region too.

    I'm having the same issue with the Fallout 3 code sent from buying Fallout 4. So if I understood correctly, backwards compatibility is region locked? What the hell Microsoft?

    Xbox backwards compatibility code issues

    Like I said I've had one work and not the other so this isn't the problem. I think they don't actually know why it's messed up and are feeding is rubbish to shut us up. If I buy a UK game I expect it to work on a UK account and a UK console. I'm going to
    ring up and I'll let you know if I get the same generic response. I want a decent answer

    Hey Marthsidious,

    Very sorry to hear about the issue. We recommend that you reach out to phone support specifically, as we are unable to assist with account related issues, which is what may be going on here as that error code is a region error.

    To reach our phone team, go ahead visit our Contact Us page. Hope this gets sorted soon!

    Let me do what this guy didn't.

    Go to your account on the pc, go to xbox settings and 360 change region. Changed mine to UK and it worked.

    Xbox one is horrible

    Can you please provide more information on the issues you are having with Backwards Compatible games. There is an ever growing list of games that are Backwards compatible.

    Are you getting any error codes that pop up about it?

    Fallout new Vegas ultimate won't install

    Hey there,

    Is there a specific error message and error code you received? Error codes look similar to 0x00000000 or XBOS-0000. Once we have that we'll be able to better narrow down what the issue may be. In the meantime, have you had similar issues installing other
    backward compatible Xbox 360 games from disc? If you can, try another backward compatible Xbox 360 disc to see if similar issues occur.

    Keep us posted!

    Xbox One X: Error 0x80070002 when launching 360 games

    The issue is backward compatible titles period. They fail to launch and give an error code immediately, and its not just 360 titles, original xbox titles from the store present the same issue.

    xbox 360 game code to pc

    ....If it is backwards compatible you should be able to download it on pc. Here is the official website for all the backwards compatible games. https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/backward-compatibility.
    I hope this helps you out.
    Not sure what you mean by that?

    Xbox 360 games can only be downloaded on either a 360 or, if they are backwards compatible, on an Xbox One.

    Xbox 360 game codes do not work on PC.

    You can of course redeem codes for consoles using a PC web browser (or a browser on any device for that matter), but the game will only be downloadable on a compatible Xbox console.
